Released a new #neovim plugin `beam.nvim` makes it possible to perform text operations (yank, delete, change, visual selection) anywhere in your file using search, while moving only when needed.

The following is only executing the callback once. Any idea why? #neovim

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd(
"BufWritePost", {
callback = callback,
group = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup(
"group",
{clear = true}
),
pattern = {"some-filename", "another-filename"}
}
)

I've been having issues with py3-lsp-server using massive amounts of CPU (spikes of 800%, baseline of 100%), and tens of seconds delay to respond. I mostly used it for go-to-definition and show-hover. I just switched to jedi-language-server. It does the same (and using the same underlying implementation) with unnoticeable resource usages.

I used (and continue to use) ruff-lsp for diagnostics and formatting anyway, so not missing anything after the switch.

Lately I was dealing with big #neovim performance issues on a large #Rust codebase. It was impossible to use: slow and crashing.

The codebase had more than 900 clippy warnings, 600+ of just one type alone.

4 PRs later: 0 warnings. It's fast again!

Started tinkering with the nuclear option for my vim setup over here. https://github.com/kaievns/nuclear-option.nvim

The actual engine of it works, you can plug it and play, but i still need to simmer on the keybindings a lot. not everything actually fits neatly

Someone suggested a mini-buffer for #Neovim on Reddit and a maintainer took it seriously Would be awesome if it happens! https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/35456

Starting my keyboard-(almost-)only, tilingWM journey some years ago with Herbstluftwm over i3/sway, it has now been tweaked near to perfection with NIRI. Everything's extremely fast and responsive, check out this screencast!

As with Sway, I can handle KeepassXC-CLI shortcut integration with no plugins needed.
Pass has been a solid choice, too.
Qutebrowser is not the only one in town to handle vim-like keybinding (but a good one ).
And yeah, dystopian Fallout retro is the stylish way to go the KISS way

You can judge me but I am trying to move stuff from my emacs-config for orgmode (lisp-functions, capture templates) to work with neovim-orgmode. And AI-slopping it works pretty well. I am not sure yet though, how well neovim-orgmode will work out in my daily use of it. #orgmode #emacs #neovim

“I wrote a #Neovim plugin in #Lua that serves HTTP requests from open buffers. It has no external dependencies, it has first-class support for serving content in Djot, and it is faster than Nginx so it won’t be a performance bottleneck behind a reverse proxy. What’s not to like?” https://vim.gabornyeki.com/

Inspired by the #Indieweb and #Emacs carnivals, I wanted one about #Vim / #Neovim, and here it comes. It will start in September, so you have two weeks to think, and blog about it.

TIL that gc toggles comments. I was using a plugin for that. #neovim #vim

I'm getting 'Waiting for OSC 52 response from the terminal. Press Ctrl-C to interrupt' a LOT

and I don't know fuck all on how to debug this
#neovim #ghostty #terminal

One of the advantages of using vim is that you can finish typing most of your rants with :q!
... and loop as many times needed /s

rewrote my neovim configs again from scratch

I switched to using #vim as my main #RStats editor in 2018 and never really looked back. I used Nvim-R for my R integration and had been piecing my way with various plugins to a janky but workable editor.

Last year, switched over to #neovim and migrated my vim config to a fever dream of Lua config files so I could try out R.nvim (the successor to Nvim-R)

Last week I declared that setup to be a superfund site and downloaded #LazyVim and holy hell is it game-changing. Being able to fly to a function definition with `gd` is a power I did not know I needed. Hell, even #LazyGit is good.

Trying to blog more so decided to create a dedicated project for it. Keep an eye out as I plan to post #neovim and #ruby things there!

Installed a new #neovim theme because it's very important to me that my code be pink

FORKS ARE GOOD! #neovim https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/27855
